Big bold flavours

28th January 2016

Douglas Green Chardonnay 25% OFF at £5.99/75cl (was £7.99, offer ends 16 February)
This is a hearty stew, with big, bold flavours, so it needs something that’ll complement it without getting utterly battered by the smoky lardons. The Chardonnay is rich, with a lovely herbaceous character, and it’s more than able to cope – a terrific pairing.

Drink it with... Sage & rosemary chicken stew

Made with Grechetto, Trebbiano and Chardonnay grapes, this is light and refreshing, with notes of green apple and peaches, plus a hint of almonds.
